This is my first attempt at creating a thread. My husband "Mike" and I "Mimi" are sailing on the NCL Epic on July 24th and have so many unanswered questions and also some hard to find info to share so we are starting this thread to discuss something besides the "toilets" and "showers". My suggestion is to buy a Spa access card for the week and use their facilities!

Also would like anyone on ship to tell us what their experience has been with the Casino. We are Harrahs "frequent Flyers" and are being comped in a Family Deluxe Balcony which is how I scored a bathtub Shower Combo! We
are excited about this trip and are disappointed that little conversation is being given about the specialty restaurants,shows,ice bar and casino.

Also we have some suggestions about shore trips that are not offered through the ship like Jaguar Paws Excursions who own the resort where you can go zip lining through the Jungle in Roatan and then Tubing through 5 caves right at their resort location for $98 per person including lunch and all transportation from the pier in Belize(Honduras)

Congrats! The casino has a LOT of slot machines with a surprising number are penny and 2-cent slots - of course you can opt to make them work for any denomination you want (quarters, etc) but almost all of them were being used by penny slot players.

There is blackjack, craps, Caribbean Stud, let ot ride, roulette and other sych table games. It is a big casini. The only thing it is short on is video poker - its there but only about 8 machines total.

You need to go to the from page and read my articles on Norwegian Epic - including my long thread from my cruise "live from Norwegian Epic" - I talk about almost everything there is to say.
